sharing a unified dbaseIII file between 4 SCO boxes

Hi,

I have an application which must use a unified database, the application will run on 4 SCO boxes, so the database will be in one of them and the application in the other 3 servers will access this database on the host machine. This is as a file sharing application in windows. I know this can be done using NFS/NIS in Unix. I just need a hint how/where to start.

man nfs - man nis ; both gave some info, but not helpful for my level. Any hints? A hint would be enough as I like to DIG my head to learn better.

An no this is not a homework, it is a jobwork, and i am new to unix. thanks.

NAME
XtAppGetErrorDatabase, XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText - obtain error database SYNTAX
XrmDatabase *XtAppGetErrorDatabase(XtAppContext app_context); void XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText(XtAppContext app_context, char *name, char *type, char *class, char *default, char *buffer_return, int nbytes, XrmDatabase database); ARGUMENTS
app_context Specifies the application context. buffer_return Specifies the buffer into which the error message is to be returned. class Specifies the resource class of the error message. database Specifies the name of the alternative database that is to be used or NULL if the application's database is to be used. default Specifies the default message to use. name type Specifies the name and type that are concatenated to form the resource name of the error message. nbytes Specifies the size of the buffer in bytes. DESCRIPTION
The XtAppGetErrorDatabase function returns the address of the error database. The Intrinsics do a lazy binding of the error database and do not merge in the database file until the first call to XtAppGetErrorDatbaseText. The XtAppGetErrorDatabaseText returns the appropriate message from the error database or returns the specified default message if one is not found in the error database. SEE ALSO
